Food Scene

There are SO many restaurants to choose from in Whistler for every budget. During peak season you should try to make a reservation weeks in advance or otherwise show up an hour earlier than what you plan to eat to put your name on a waiting list.
A lovely fine dining experience. Be sure to make a reservation at least a week in advance. If you just show up you should expect to wait at least 1 hour to get it in

This is truly an amazing and beautiful place with 3 turquoise lakes to see. It's a challenging hike and will take about 5 hours return, so bring water and food. It get's very busy in the summer, so if you want to go, make sure that you leave at the crack of dawn so that you can enjoy it. Also fun to snow shoe in the winter.

Many snowmobile trips to choose from. If you want more adventure I would recommend going to Cougar mountain for a full day of snowmobiling. For a romantic trip, do the night time mountain tour with Fondue dinner at the top of the Blackcomb mountain at the Crystal Hut
